For Parents to Ponder.

It is generally without thought, sell
dom with intention to inflict pain,
that child's past misdemeanors are
kept fresh in his memory when they
should be forgotten; but that this very
often is done by those who should do
better, sometimes even by parents, no
careful observer can doubt. That the
harm thereby done to the child is I'M
realized makes it none the less real.

Important to Dakota Lawyers.

Three bills of great Importance to the
legal profession of the territory became
laws at the late session. The following are
their provisions:
Council bill 1876, introduced by Mr..
Hughes, covers the entire practice on trial
up to the notice OF appeal to the supreme
court. 1t is the California practice as it
exists in that state. The old law was the
California practice in part, and was so in
complete and uncertain in it's provisions
that it was very difficult to take case on
appeal to the supreme court.
Council bill 16O, introduced by Mr.. Nc
Cumber, provides for appeals from the dis
trict to the supreme court. This bill begins
where the former bill leaves off, and is the
Wisconsin practice. 1t is much more sim
pie in its provisions, and much less expen-
sive to litigants than the old law. -.
Council bill lat introduced by Mr. Hughes,
defines the power OF the judge OF court in
chambers and validates former orders and
judgments.

WISCONSIN MURDER TRIAL.
trial Of David Allen at NellsVille, for the Murder
Of Henry Wright.

In May, 1886, Henry Wright, OF the
town OF Royal Clark county, Wis., was
taken sick and died under suspicious cir
cumstances. 1t wac developed that David
Allen, a neighbor, had been sustaining illic-
it relations with Wright's wife. Allen and
Mrs. Wright were arrested and tried in JUS
ices court, and Allen indicted for muir
der Mrs. Wright made a full confession,
but afterward recanted. In this COMES
Allen had agreed to kill both Mr.. Wright
and Aliens wife by poison, and that she
and Allen poisoned Wright by putting
strychnine in his tea. 1t was said at the
time that Mrs. Allen, who for weeks had been
confined to her bed by some mysterious
illness, speedily reganed her health alter
her husband had been consigned to jail.
At the trial at Neillsville, one Derby, a
neighbor OF Wright's testified: Intimacy
existed between the families OF Wright and
Allen. Allen was continuously in attend
ance upon Wright in his illness and ap-
peared to purposely avoid any one else
who came to wait upon Wright.
DR.. W. S. Hanes, the analytic chemist, OF
Chicago, who analysed the stomach OF Hen
~ Wright. testified to the presence or ar
senic in Wright's stomach.
Margaret Wright, widow OF the deceased,
was called by the state. Counsel for the
defense objected to allowing her testifying
as it was stated that she was an accom-
plice, and would turn states evidence in
order to obtain immunity. The court de.
cided to hear her testimony. She testified:
There had been criminal intercourse be-
tween herself and Allen for about year
previous to her husbands death, on May
3, 1886. Allen decided to get rid OF both
his wife and her husband, and that he would
then leave with the witness. He procured
strychnine at Neillsville, but as it tasted
bad, Wright could not be induced to
drink water containing it. Allen then
went to Milwaukee in April and purchased
arsenic, about two weeks before Wright's
death. Allen had her put some into cook
les. The deceased ate some OF them the
next morning, which caused him to be very
sick. Seeing her husband in pain, she relent-
ed. gotsome lobelia, stepped some and gave
him some tea. He vomited violently and
was relieved. Allen had stated to her that
he was giving the deceased doses OF arsenic,
and had repeatedly admitted giving him
poison. She did not give any person her
self any OF the cookies, nor did she consent
to giving any. Allen wanted her to go to
Chicago. and she would not. She told him
she would tell ALL and he swore he would
hire men to swear against her. The wit
ness started for Marshfield and was arrest
ed at Loyal. She saw Allen once or twice
in Jail. Once he said he was sorry the wit
ness owned up. Monday night when she
talked with him there were three men with
her Messrs. Woodward, Campbell and
Hill. They had correspondence in writing
and passed notes by string.
Mrs. Wright's counsel produced letters
which the witness says she received from
Allen. The court house was crowded with
spectators.

Wife Selling in Illinois.

Joliet Special: Michaelo Duzetti with
his wife lived in the mining village OF Di.
almond, and with them lived Patrello
Pervna. Mrs. Duzetti became enamored
of Patrella and with him eloped to Will
mington, ILL.,, where they were discovered
and brought back to Braidwood, ILL.,
When Justice Mum called the
case Duzetti appeared and stated
that he had seen Pervna during the
night; that Pervna had told him that Mrs
Duzetti loved him better than she did her
husband, and that Pervna would pay all
costs and give him $50, to let the matter
drop, provided he would allow Mrs. Duzetti
to 60 with him. This was agreed to by
Duzetti and after paying the Justices fine
OF $40 the suit was dismissed, and Pervna
and Mrs. Duzetti started for New Mexico.

THE CHRISTMAS ELVES.
ny T. D. ANDERSON.

@1S fearful night in the winter time,
w And as cold as ever can he,
80 And down where the cedar and Ar
and pine,
And the h AIRY hemlo. k tree
Sing and wall to the brook all night,
As the bee es sweep with caress or
blight
Comes the echo of mighty glee.
For there, all hidden from mortal sight,
Are the fairy-fOlks, you know,
Under the raises, away from the light
nder The ice and snow.
In glittering alace of frosty rime,
And towers and turrets of needles of pine,
They constantly come and 60.
And they heed not the revels Of lady or
Tfese elves of the forest far;
They heed not the conquest Of battle ana
sword.
Nor the glimmer of SIN or star.
For their eyes are like diamonds, and
CLEAN like the fire.
And TIER sost tripping f, ct never falter
or lire,
As their garments of gossamer are.
But these have their mission, the fairy
books say,
And surely the story Is sweet;
They 60 forth when the dark night sue
Gee Is to the day,
The dear little chill rem to meet
All UnknowI and unseen, they listen and
smile,
And they stay at the pillows of sleepers
awhile
And guess what they dream, then away.
These are the fairies of go d Santa Claus,
These are the ewes that he minds,
To tell him which ones of the children are
Mid the children of various kinds;
And he writes down their name on tab
let of god,
And he makes up his presents, as you
have been told.
And each little good one he finds.
So - thus the story my child. you'll agree
That If you are pleasant and true.
When even ng comes down in its sweet
ness and gIee,
You'd better look out what you do.
For If yru'v been good through the long,
earnest day,
The ia ries will come thick and fast in
array,
And santa Claus wont forget you.
